YouTube Q&A [AMA]

[mehdiabdo]

PMed you about a niche, not too much to say just a question if kindly you have some time

 

[loutiop]

How many tags do you recommend to be used on a video

 

[wengthemeng]

Its still possible get monetization by google adsense for kids channel? Because some people say no some people say yes but you get low cpc so how exactly ? If you can what about CPC we talk for kids channel?

I cant say for certain as I do not have any experience with kids channels since their monetization is limited.

Hey thanks for your thread

What do you think of 'YoutubeShort' ?

YouTube Shorts are a FANTASTIC way of building an audience for your youtube channel even before you consider profitting from it. Join in on it if you can1

I have 195 subs and 2000 hours watch time. I know a method of gettig views in YouTube without subscribers. I get 2000 views per day with just 195 subs with 26 videos. I figured at current rate of growth, my channel will reach 4000 hours watch time in 2 months. But issue is with subs I will take 2 years for 1000 subs at current rate. Should I buy subs from smm panel? Will it cause issues to my channel in manual review?

It may cause issues depending on the type of content youre posting. Using an SMM panel to hit 1k subs shouldnt a problem as the reason why youtube usually denies people is because their content isnt monetizable (i.e. compilations)

Thank you for providing a plaice to get answers!

My first would be:
what the AMA stands for?

Second:
What’s a proper/best way of creating gmail and yt accounts? For future channels and fake accounts (need those in order to give myself few dozens likes/comments here and there)
Dedicated VM + cheap proxy from target country would be enough? Or is it necessary to use new sim card for every account?

Third:
Is ti necessary to season those fake yt accounts via regular activities on youtube? (Watching videos, emitting user behavior). does it really make a difference in practice?

Thanks

1. AMA stands for ask me anything
2. I would imagine a VM+ proxies from target country would be enough.
3. I've never really "seasoned" an account like how you would on instagram. I dont think it makes a difference.

What niche you in? And how much views you got in Total?

Im in celebs, tv shows, movies, sports, mma, tech, anime, health, fitness, and finance. EVERYTHING. Together, I get over 10M+ views per month across all my channels.

Hi I got a question!
I do daily live streams and getting thousands of views a day. I use royalty free music (even from the YouTube library), PG language, My own thumbnail and following all the guidelines.
BUT I still always get the yellow limited sign and I don't earn anything!!
How do I fix this? I messaged YouTube support but they just keep sending this "guidelines" page as if they didn't even read what I said.
Any answer would be very very appreciated, thank you!

Do you mind PMing me your videos so that I can take a look myself?

What artificial ways do you get traffic?

I believe youtube traffic should be obtained 100% organically.

Do you recommend me have a bunch of channels in the same gmail account even if they are not in the same niche?

I personally associate one channel only for one gmail account. If you have 20 channels connected to the same gmail account and that one account gets hacked, that'll be bad.

I was searching for a tutorial on a particular ad network last year. I reached over and couldn't find it, so I recorded a screen cast tutorial and created a new channel and uploaded the video.

I dumped the channel since last year. Now When i checked the video has gotten 1k views and 5 likes.
So now am planning to create similar videos and keep uploading it to grow the channel.

The channel is a personal brand channel and am thinking of focusing on the particular sub niche which is in the CPA Niche.
I did keyword research with VidIQ and found good target keywords.
My question is that do you think I should broaden my topics or focus on that sub niche and expand later?

And do you think it is possible to record screen cast tutorial videos and add voiceovers (using text to speech software by IBM)? If yes do you think that is a good idea?

Thanks

I would focus on the sub niche and expand later. Believe in the saying "the riches are in the niches" or "niche down to blow up'
If u want to add voiceover, i would always refrain from using TTS software as this may caus eproblems in the future.

Hi, first of all thank you very much for taking the time to answer our questions.

I have a few questions myself, if you can answer them it would be great.

1) After reading all your answers I noticed that several times you mentioned the importance of not depending 100% on YouTube (like with Amazon). So I was wondering what are your different solutions to this problem? Or in other words, what were your other methods to generate money apart from ads?

2) If I understood correctly, you manage several channels so I was wondering what were your daily tasks? I guess you manage your teams but are you also the one who looks for the subjects of the next videos, is it you who does all the descriptions and the SEO of the videos?

3) And last question (which I could have included in the second one), is it you who takes care of the thumbnails or for example you just come with the video topic/title and your designer takes care of everything else? Do you still give him your ideas so he can follow them?

Again, thank you very much, your answers so far have helped me a lot and probably saved me months of research and problems.

1. Hi there can you refer me back to where I stated this?
2. Because i have 4 project managers managing the channels for me, my daily tasks are uploading and fixing any issues that arise from my project managers' comments. I also look for new vreative video topic ideas which is probably the fun part but i only do this once or twice a week for about an hour.

I do the titles but the descriptions are outsourced.

3. Oh you bring up a very good point. Of the script writer, voiceover artist, and video editor, i probably work the closest to my thumbnail artists. TO me, every video ahs the potential to bring in $50,000 so of course im gonna spend A LOT of time making sure my thumbnails are solid. I dedicate one thumbnail artist per channel.

if you start a youtube channel today, what niche is easier to get views

VIral niches! tv shows, movies, celebs, gossip, anime, tech, health, fitness, finance

How many tags do you recommend to be used on a video

I actually limit my tags based on character account. I aim for 300-400 charactars.

Could you contact me for a monetized youtube account?

Thanks! @wengthemeng

 

[vaidavytas]

First of all thanks a lot for your contributions on this forum. I'm learning a lot from you here and on your channel as well. I want to ask you 3 questions.

Im in celebs, tv shows, movies, sports, mma, tech, anime, health, fitness, and finance. EVERYTHING.

1) Do you use separate gmail and adsense account for each channel/niche?

2) If I use clips of other people including audio, but shorter than 13 seconds, put them in a compilation and add my voiceover with my own commentary of each clip, I basically fall under "fair use" and can monetize that channel/videos? I'm talking about clips shot by regular people, not movies, tv shows, music, or other copyrighted stuff.

3) Do you put "fair use copyright act 107" information in description of your videos?

Hello! Glad to be of help, honestly

1) I use seperate emails for every single one of my youtube channels; however, I only use one adsense account.

2) Yes this would fall under fair use!

3) I put a disclaimer at the END of my description, yes!

Good day BHW,

I found myself answering a bunch of people's questions quite thoroughly in this section of the forum to only realize that not everyone is probably gonna read my answers. So why not start an AMA?

I hope to inspire/ motivate people to take action on YouTube

Ask me anything regarding the following topics (credits to @Takurah for this list)

• Content Creation
• Keywords
• Proper Titles
• Traffic sourcing
• Fake view boosting
• Back Linking
• Editing Software
• Niche Finding
• What to film/edit/make next?
• Why things go viral.
• Basic Algorithms
• Collaborations
• Camera
• Lighting
• Monetizing your Youtube Channel

All that and any of that plus more.

Here are a few questions I've answered already:

Q: If I bought subs+ views and reached monetization criteria, will my channel get monetized?
A: A lot more details are factored when it comes to monetizing your channel. I ll layout my process of how someone i know monetizes their channel and has actually done it for me too.
1) aged YT account
2) i branded the account, actually created a profile pic/ banner/ created twitter page as well to link it with.
3) posted 3 videos; 2 10 min long ones, and 1 2 hour long one- similar niche, commentary/ screen record type videos.
4) Buying subs is easy, im not gonna recommend an SMM panel though but justbuy 1k.
5) as for teh watch hours, my friend has his guy bot the watch time on his 2 hour long video.
6) apply for monetization; receive acceptance after 2-3 weeks.

Now this is the general criteria I follow after I receive approval:
1) Keep videos public until more than 10 new videos are posted.
2. dont change primary owner for another 6 months
3. NEVER turn on monetization for the watch hours video
4. Dont change passwords for a couple of months
5. dont change emails for a couple of months
6. It’s OKAY to monetize new videos on the channel that you post.

--------

Q: If my YouTube account was connected to a banned adsense acccount, is it still okay for me to connect another adsense account to it?
A: From what I've learned from google reps through chat is this:
Channel A is connected to Adsense A.
Adsense A gets banned, but Channel A is still monetizable.
You are still allowed to connect Channel A to Adsense B.

If the reasons why Adsense A got banned though is BECAUSE of YouTube activity, then youre gonna need to fix your youtube to abide by YouTube policies. If you don't, then you would then be putting Adsense B at harm.
If the reasons why Adsense A got banned is NOT because of YouTube activity, then connecting Channel A to Adsense B should be perfectly fine.

You'll know if Adsense A got banned because of Channel A if you receive a notification or copyright strike or etc. that it was related to youtube activity.

Looking forward to answering your questions during this quarantine time.

What is the best Free editing software?

If you were to start from the beginning all over again with a new channel and new niche, what would you do and how would you grow it.

Hi ....I want some help related to using editing software. Is there some editing software or some editing format through which yt detection is avoided.?

Hi ....I want some help related to using editing software. Is there any editing software or any formats through which bypass content id.?

 

[wengthemeng]

Awesome, thanks buddy. Do you use same - your real name to create those emails?

Nope1

What is the best Free editing software?

I prefer imovie as my favorite free editing software.

If you were to start from the beginning all over again with a new channel and new niche, what would you do and how would you grow it.

I honestly use the same strategies that i have before, now.

one thing i would do different as spend less time plannining and more time taking action. Im guilty of analysis paralysis haha.

Hi ....I want some help related to using editing software. Is there any editing software or any formats through which bypass content id.?

No software will bypass content ID. You bypass content ID by creating short segments attached to voiceovers.

Are compilations not monetizable at all? What if you use commentary over them?

 

[wengthemeng]

You can monetize compilations but Youtube may demonetize that video at any time for copyright violations.

It's a bit tricky nowadays. Adding background music, commentary, and anything else to the videos do help but only by so much.

About 90% of my clients who do compilation videos do get demonetized so just be careful.

How do you organize your teams?

 

[wengthemeng]

How do you organize your teams?

I use notion.

I have roughly 4 project managers under me. One project manager helps me oversee the other 3 project managers.

All project managers have a full editorial team under them.

Notion is a learning curve, but once mastered, it's extremely organized and convenient.

 

[vaidavytas]

Do you use same IP and computer to manage all your channels?

 

[alvin.orrt]

How do you actually get views to a brand new channel? Especially to a viral content one (like celebrities / compilations / funny / etc) - where people don't search for the video, but most such videos are suggested either in the home feed or the recommended videos... How do you get the ball rolling, considering that when you publish a new video, with 0 subscribers, it gets 0 impressions (and there's no search volume for those specific keywords - but there are tons of videos with identical titles / topics that have thousands or millions of views).

How important is ctr for new channels? I'm getting zero impressions for my brand new channel - so how can i have an actual CTR. I have a rather new channel (1-2 months old) that has a CTR of 15-20% on some videos and average watch time is 5 minutes or more. But i don't get more than 5 views per day on such videos (because they don't get any impressions) - even tho similar videos have hundreds of thousands of views in less than 1 month.

Different IPs!

So you mention something that I want to clarify on in which there are tons of videos with identical titles/ topics. This is where youtube is kind of like selling a digital product. How do you get your video to stick out from the rest? Is it a catchier title? Catchier thumbnail? That's usually step 1 then the actual content of your video has to deliver.

CTR will always be extremely important whether youre new or old.

I want to say that the reason youre getting zero impressions is because your content isnt sought out after. It would probably help more if i can actually analyze your channel.

take a look a this?

- how is this video sought after? keywords?
also you say CTR is important. let's say i post a video like the one above, using a random word as title and no other keywords. it gets 0 (zero) impressions. how can a video get a good CTR if it has no impressions? how can you make youtube drive impressions to a video / topic that has no (or low) search volume.
